The Last Single Girl

Recently my friends, namely my best friends, have all gotten boyfriends. And while I’m very happy for them and their insane bliss, it can leave one feeling a little.. well.. unhappy with her current status. I actually enjoy being single, so to remind myself of the fact, I wrote a list. A list of 100 things I’d like to do while I’m still single. Not all of the things on this list are things you can only do while being single.. but it’s just a motivating list. I’ll try and remember to take pictures and keep a record of stuff I do, and then I’ll blog about it. I made it a list of practical and fun things. Here goes nothing..
